What type of cage are you keeping the snakes in? What is the cool side/air temperature inside the cage?

If all of your other snakes are fine I wouldn't be jumping to assume it's all your fault. Your cool side temps are a bit low, but if you just got that baby and you said yourself you don't know what to look for he/she may have already been sick. I'd work on getting your ambient temp a little closer to 80. But don't beat yourself up too bad over it. Maybe a uth on the cool side with a thermostat? I've heard they usually don't do much for ambient temps but seeing how yours only needs a couple of degrees boost it might work.
I don't mind living in a man's world as long as I can be a woman in it.

Your temp is a little low and a space heater would probably help.
Cold snakes usually don't get RIs or have any other problems if done correctly.
The cause of them being sick is more human error as in, this snake is too cold so lets warm it up as quick as we can.
If they are cooled slowly and then brought back up to temp over a week or so then all is usually okay.
If it was a new baby, who know what could have been wrong.
